CSF’s Founders’ Legacy Society: Providing Educational Opportunity for Generations to Come

The founders of Children’s Scholarship Fund, Ted Forstmann and John Walton, left a profound legacy when they established a program in 1998 empowering low-income parents to choose a better academic path for their children.

By joining CSF’s Founders’ Legacy Society with a gift through your will or estate, you will be ensuring the continuation of Ted and John’s mission of expanding educational opportunities for all children for years to come. 

The Founders’ Legacy Society honors those who have let us know that they have included CSF in their estate plans. You can learn more about the Founders’ Legacy Society and how to join here. Most join by:

• Naming CSF as a beneficiary of your insurance policy or retirement plan.
